Sr. Commercial Recruiter, EMEA

Job description

About the Role Uber Delivery encompasses Uber Eats, Grocery & Retail, and Uber Direct. In this role, you will recruit commercial talent and leadership positions across key EMEA markets, including high-growth territories like Germany.

Efficient Capacity Management

Do you thrive when building efficient, repeatable ways of working? Manage ~15 active commercial requisitions simultaneously across different profiles and countries using strong daily prioritization and process discipline.

Evidence-Based Assessment

Are you constantly looking for better ways to evaluate talent? Bring critical thinking to interview loops, guiding hiring managers to focus on objective evidence, challenge weak signals, and protect the candidate bar.

Post-Hire Feedback & Optimization

Do you get energy from asking "how can we improve next time?" Review 90-day post-hire performance feedback with managers to refine future candidate profiles and optimize metrics like time-to-fill, conversion rates, and candidate experience.

What You’ll Need

Commercial Recruitment Background: 6+ years experience managing full-lifecycle commercial searches from sourcing and referral management through to offer, in a fast-paced environment.

Consultative Influence

Strong relationship-building skills to guide, advise, and challenge hiring managers effectively.

Analytical & Solution-Oriented Mindset

High learning agility and critical thinking skills to evaluate data, adapt to change quickly, and solve hiring roadblocks.

Organization & Discipline

Ability to balance ~15 concurrent searches without sacrificing quality, candidate experience, or operational rigor. Nice-to-Have Experience coaching or mentoring fellow recruiters or hiring managers. Background hiring within a scaled, high-growth technology or commercial organization. Early adoption of generative AI tools to streamline day-to-day recruiting workflows.
